Product Overview
Powered by Alien®’s break-through Higgs™4 UHF RFID IC and innovative “Squig” antenna design, the ALN-9710 delivers industry leading EPC Gen 2 performance and reliability in a shorter width than it’s bigger brothers, the Squiggle® and the Squiglette, making it ideal for apparel and small label applications. With its Higgs-4 core, the “Squig” delivers next generation read and write performance, yet is completely optimized for the highest volume enterprise, retail, and apparel applications.
An optimized memory footprint includes a 32-bit TID, a 64- bit Unique TID for authentication and next generation serialization applications, a 128-bit EPC memory bank, 128-bits of user memory for distributed data applications, and password protected read and write support capabilities to prevent unauthorized viewing and modification of the tag’s data.
ALN-9710 inlays are World Tag compliant, enabling consistent operation across the diverse frequencies of the Americas, Europe, Middle East, Asia, and Africa.
